Jesus E Davila of Southgate, California, was naturally grief-stricken when his brother, also called Jesus, was killed in a hit-and-run accident.

The holidays were an especially tough time. So, when the gift-giving season arrived, his wife, Desteny Rivera, decided to surprise him with a present to help keep his brother’s memory alive.

Making sure she was his Secret Santa, she bought him a talking teddy bear. And when he pushed the button to hear the recorded voice inside, it brought him to his knees.

Watch the video above to see a grieving man receive the gift of words.
